Polygamous Groups and Religious Fanatics
One major focus of our organization is to expose the abuses inside polygamous
groups in an effort to free the victims and also to demand action on the part
of government and law enforcement. We asked the FBI to investigate the serious
crimes committed in polygamy. Here is a copy of our letter to them.
We are distressed by the number of disappeared, missing, and suspicious deaths

Most polygamous cults are secretive, isolated and instill a program of "us
against them" among their captive members. When abuse occurs members are
instructed to hide it from authorities and agencies, however there are plenty
of escaped victims blowing the whistle on the offenders and although this is a
complicated problem to solve, CPP fully expects the mandated authorities to
protect the civil and human rights of the captive polygamy children.
- The Latter Day Church of Christ, aka Kingston, is an abusive religious cult practicing incest as a religious
rite. They have amassed a small fortune, in part by using slave labor. One goal
of Child Protection Project is to use civil remedies to show that this is not a
charitable beneficial trust at all but a family perpetrating a fraud for
financial gain.

Prophet Rulon Timpson Jeffs died leaving his violent son, Warren Steed Jeffs as
the leader of an estimated 11,000 to 16,000 members. Rulon Jeffs was sham
"married" to 22 women, fathered more than 60 children, at last count,
many of whom Warren has now "married". The headquarters are in Hildale,
Utah, and the group controls the border town of Colorado City, Ariz. Those
towns, once known as Short Creek, were the site of the last effort to prosecute
polygamists in 1953. Unfortunately, public sentiment turned against authorities
after newsreels showed children being taken from their mothers and fathers
being thrown in jail. The public did not understand the systemic abuse suffered
at the hands of the polygamist patriarchs. Warren Jeffs is a madman, a rapist
of boys and girls, and routinely commits felonies with impunity. We cannot
continue to ignore these massive civil and human rights violations simply
because they are committed under a religious ruse.
